...Of 3rd Century...Gallic Caesars...Tetricus ll

I just bought a Tetricus I. coin for just 7.70 EUR because I thought I have one but only have a Tetricus II. with a very bad reverse.




Reverse: PAX AVG

Yep

 

Finding a Tetricus II of good style, AND good strike, and reasonable conservation is very tough.

That's the best I could do and still, the reverse isn't what one would want



As for Saloninus' middle bronzes, I can't but agree with Doug, they are at least scarce
